Hi there,
I used the files from your server, flash_rec.zip
and followed the instructions in the manual.
After the rock firmware_flash.rock checked my
firmware_rec.bin stored in the root folder, it
responded with a screen containing only the word
"checked:" like that. Thats where I shouldnt have
pressed F2 i guess...

After this error occured, Ive tried both flashing
with a new ucl and replacing the files for
flashing the firmware. Trying to flash with a
.ucl gives me a weird error: After checking the
file it says: File OK. And below I get a line
filled with zeros...

Ive sent a file with the dumped ROM contents to your email.
